⚠️SHOP UPDATE ⚠️

Hoping you are all keeping well. You may (or may not!) have noticed a total absence from Robin’s Bobbins social media this year and, since Easter, my shop has been closed. Please do not worry, I’m all good, just busy! Please let me explain myself…

In January, I returned to teaching music. I am totally loving being back in the classroom and inspiring children with the subject I love. I also have a weekly register of 15 piano pupils (from ages 7 - 84) which is so enjoyable. And, there’s my 3 lovely boys to look after (and a husband in there somewhere too!). So, with my dear Robin’s Bobbins - the business which I have been running for 10 years this year - any “me” time had been squeezed to extinction. Something had to give, and I took the decision to pause my business to get myself back to normal.

Well, after a couple of months, I have come to some balance. I gain so much pleasure from Robin’s Bobbins, and have worked so hard to build this successful and sustainable business. I have reopened, but will take it slowly and see how it goes. My current dispatch time is 1-2 weeks, there are no express shipping options and, if things get too much, I’ll just close up again and come back when I can.

Therefore, I’m thrilled to say “Hello” again (for now) and welcome back to my home of custom-made costumes and personalised gifts. It’s good to be here!

Siân 🩵💚💛🧡❤️🩷💜

Bespoke Gifts and Costumes, Hand-sewn by me... for you!

I create bespoke gifts and costumes for all occasions from my home in Surbiton, Surrey. All of my items are made to your choice of fabric, colour and personalisation.

The Beginning of Robin's Bobbins

4 years ago, my 2 (now 7) year old son, Robin asked me to make him a superhero cape. Rather than buying one I tried my hand at creating my own; Robin was soon running around (saving his little world!) in a red superhero cape with a black R on the back. A few weeks later he asked me to make him a dinosaur cape (like every little boy, he was dinosaur mad!). I was stumped at first but, after a bit of trial and error, I created a green dinosaur cape with multi-coloured spines. Robin grew to have quite a cape collection (including a magician's and even a Christmas tree!) which he still wears everywhere and, judging by the smiles on passers by, they are very popular! I enjoyed creating gifts for my friends and their children and, once I started to run out of occasions to sew for, I tried my hand at selling my items. And that is how Robin's Bobbins was born! I get so much pleasure out of creating my items; knowing that each gift is bespoke, for a special someone, is so fulfilling.
